I have ADHD and feel a lot of false hope has been spread and a lot of money being made.
Capitalizing on people's pain and suffering with books and hope.
I'd rather keep dealing with professions who have devoted themselves to a lifetime of qualifications and work that hasn't led to fame and riches.
As someone with ADHD I feel I am the target demographic and product you got rich off.
Nothing the different for me but I guess I'll take those pockets full of hope. 🤷‍♂️
